Sambhala hai maine ..

We are back with Kumar Sanu and Anu Malik. This wonderful track from movie Naraz was written by Qateel Shafai. On screen is gorgeous Sonali Bendre. A nice use of whistle to make the atmosphere romantic.

This song comes back so many times and I guess I listen this at least once in a month. What else you expect from the Sanu Fan :)





Enjoy!! 

Anjani rahon mein tu kya dhoondata fire ...

Thinking of India trip... It is so far but still it is so close to me... What am I searching on these unknown streets -  It's always with me - in my heart!

Great composition and song by Lucky Ali. Don't want to say more... 

Enjoy!!

Glad you came ...

I was running in the morning - it was windy and rainy but we were determined. Suddenly this song came up in one moment - I hummed "I'm glad you came" and everybody started laughing!! Start your Friday party with this song .. nice Friday mood and awesome start for the day!!

A great song from English band The Wanted. Every time I watch this video I feel like going to Ibiza!





 Enjoy!!

Tumse milke aisa laga..

Madhuri and Anil Kapoor .. one of the best couple on screen in late 80's and 90's Hindi movies. This song combines them with the great Rahulda! Tumse milke aisa laga .. was the simple love song from the violent underworld story - Parinda. Vidhu Vinod Chopra made this song a memorable watch. Voices of Suresh Wadkar and Asha Bhosle made this one of the unforgettable.





Enjoy!!     

Lakdi ki kathi ...

Shekhar Kapoor made some awesome movies in Hindi and Masoom was one of those. Gulzaar penned some great songs for the movie and they all received great music by Rahulda (R D Burman). This one is my childhood favorite. I had a cassette tape called "Children's songs" and I used to listen this song sitting on my wooden horse! Imagination of children that what their horse will do in the city and performance of Urmila, Jugal and Aradhana. Gauri Bapat, Gurpreet Kaur, Vanita Mishra gave their voices to enjoying children and made this song an unforgettable one!






Enjoy!! 

Hoton pe Jaan ..

Some songs don't get appreciated when they first come but later when somebody remixes them or just remasters them they get picked up and become legend. This is one of those songs.

Kishore Kumar has sung many famous love songs - this was never a famous one. Nice composition from Bappida! But when music company remastered this song and re-released with a new video - it became the selling point of their entire collection. I am adding the original one too - watching that you might see why this was not hit that time ;)









Enjoy!! 

Jaane kyun dil jaanta hai...

Dostana (2008) was a funny movie. I think it's a wild comedy with the Bollywood melodrama twist! Does friendship between boy and girl always have to go in the way of relationship? I guess if you leave that question aside - this song showing friendship between Priyanka, John, and Abhishek as roommates is a very nice song. It says "I know if you are there with me then I'll be all right !" In your good times - when you are having fun - in your bad time - when you are drunk - in funny time -when you are scared of a scary movie - your friend will always be there! (He/she might come and scare you :p)

Enjoy!!

Ek pyaar ka nagma hai ...

From the movie Shor, a soothing song sung by Lata. Laxmikant- Pyarelal gave their best composed tracks to Lata and Lata made them Golden songs !! Nice use of violin and Mukesh's voice. Kamini Kaushal portrays mom loving her kid and playing in the sea with him. Santosh Anand - a not so famous lyricist wrote the nice verses telling "this life is nothing but just a story of you and me .. !"

Enjoy!!

Kal bhi aaj bhi Kal bhi ..

There are some jingles which made the particular brand the household name. One of those jingles was VIP luggage jingle "Kal Bhi Aaj Bhi kal bhi ..."

In 1990's when India was just opening it's market for the foreign products, VIP started this ad campaign and it made VIP as a leading luggage brand in India. I am not sure about the advertising agency or people behind this great ad campaign but sometimes when I become nostalgic - I remember this ad. 

Enjoy!!
